One of the most distinguished events of the year was the dedication of Southwestern ' s four new buildings: the circular University Commons, two men ' s residence halls, Herman Brown and Moody-Shearn, and the mas- sive addition to the Cody Memorial Library. Among the dignitaries present were Governor John Connally who delivered the convocation address, stress- ing the value of private education; John D. Wheeler, former chairman of the Board of Trustees, who presented the Commons to the school; George R. Brown, president of the Brown Foundation, who presented Herman Brown Hall and the Cody Memorial Library addition; and Mrs. Mary Moody Northern, representing the Moody Founda- tion, who presented Moody-Shearn Hall to the Uni- versity. The rare book room of the library addition was officially opened with Mrs. Charles N. Prothro ' s exhibit, The Bible, Keystone of Culture. This room houses the Brown col- lection, the Clark Texana, an extensive Wesleyana and original writings of the early history of the Methodist Church in Texas. The highlight of the day for many was Connally ' s address, which he concluded by stating, Whatever progress we are able to make, the private co llege must contribute to as an integral part of the total higher education system. 23

Homecoming, 1 966 The first Fall Homecoming in several years proved to be very suc- cessful. Dean- John Richards of the School of Fine Arts was honored as Mr. Homecoming on the twentieth anniversary of his coming to Southwestern as the director of the A ' Cappella Choir. Members of previous choirs had a reunion of their own, and a special program by this year ' s choir was presented for their entertainment. Various organizations, particularly the Greeks, were busy several weeks in advance building floats for the special parade and booths for the carnival that evening. Janet Bauman was crowned Home- coming Queen to preside over the festivities. Other nominees were Hanna Hannan, Gretchen Morgan, Judy Chadwick, Kay Purdy, Judy Lorton, Grace Evans, and June Pearson. 25
